Sadly, the Indian Government is very slow on all things technology. This might come as surprise in a country whose core competency has been technology!
If you don't believe me just visit any Indian Govt website and you'll quickly realize how light years behind we really are. No wonder hackers across the border show it to the world from time to time.
As far as the PayPal move goes its a very bad move considering that not many own credit cards and there is no real way to pay money online for making instant purchases in India. Not that I like PayPal.
- desigooner 16y agoAt least understand the real reason (which someone aptly stated in one of the comments above, money laundering and such) before talking about things that have nothing to do with the decision.
- amitagrawal 16y agoMoney laundering? Who are you kidding to? In India money laundering takes place in broad daylight right under your nose and I'm sure Paypal's sure would be a drop in the ocean. If you know what I'm talking about. Literally.
- desigooner 16y agoOh I exactly know how it all works, hawala or otherwise. Again, the question is not if it's a move that will deter such laundering and so on. It's one of those things that you'd do to make people believe that you're up to something.
- statictype 16y agoCredit cards are not difficult to get. Anyone you can create a paypal account and get money transferred into it should be able to get a credit card.
